MECHANICAL [SKYACTIV-G 1.3, SKYACTIV-G 1.5]


id0110q3000100


Outline

•  For SKYACTIV-G 1.3 and SKYACTIV-G 1.5, the sliding resistance*1 has been reduced by the following.
―  Adoption of a rocker arm (built in needle roller bearing)
―  Reducing the valve spring load
―  Narrowing down the crankshaft journal
―  Optimizing the piston skirt shape
―  Adoption of a low-tension piston ring
―  Lowered tensioning of the drive belt
•  A maintenance-free design for valve clearance has been achieved with the adoption of the HLA.
•  With the adoption of a piston cavity, cooling loss has been reduced.
•  A variable valve timing mechanism has been adopted on the intake side, reducing the pumping loss*2. (Without coolant control valve (4-1 exhaust system))
•  The pumping loss*2 has been reduced with the adoption of the variable valve timing mechanism on both sides of the intake and exhaust. (Without coolant control valve (4-2-1 exhaust system), with coolant control valve)
•  The timing chain behavior has been stabilized and sliding resistance has been reduced by optimizing the shape and rigidity of the timing chain-related parts.
*1  :Resistance (friction force) which occurs when two object slide against each other. The larger the sliding resistance, the greater the energy loss.
*2  :Energy loss which occurs from each type of resistance corresponding to intake and exhaust is called pumping loss.
